What’s funny about all the new console talk is that even with all the gloating about PS5’s sales, I read today that over half of PlayStation players are still using a PS4. The current generation hasn’t done enough to wow and attract buyers on either side IMO. And we’re already talking about the...

Yup. I was being a bit sarcastic with that post. I agree.

So I guess all the press articles including the Insider Gaming article in that thread were wrong? IGN, Bloomberg, Pure Xbox … all stated it. From Insider Gaming: “In a new interview with Bloomberg, Sarah Bond has confirmed that every first party game, including Call of Duty, will still launch...

Ouch. Not a great line up.

Speaking of GamePass, Chants of Sennaar is up. One less game on my wish list. One more game tile to look at in my backlog. No, I’m actually looking forward to finally playing it! Oh, I also started playing the Towerborne beta. It’s a pretty fun new take on the Castle Crashers formula. Lacking...

I think with Sarah Bond coming out after all the rumors last week and doubling down on all first party games going to GamePass that CoD will definitely be there. Or she wouldn’t have doubled down on it.

There are still some bigger day one games we’ve gotten like The Show 24, Persona 3 Reload, Eiyuden Chronicle, Lies of P, Wo Long Fallen Dynasty. Those were all $50+ games - a few $70. Don’t expect it all the time but it’s nice to have sprinkled in through the year. Anyway, to each their own as...

Not sure how anyone could expect all AAA 3rd party games to be on GamePass. There’s absolutely no way that could ever happen and if it did, the subscription would probably have to be $100 a month. GamePass has always been about a rotating selection of games. All first party games Day One and a...

Great adds to GamePass! Several of those I had looked at buying plus the day one stuff.

Hope they port Star Ocean Second Story R to Xbox. Quite honestly, forgetting all the fancy cutscenes and over the top stories, it’s my favorite Square RPG of late even over FF 7 Remake / FF 16.

Sounded like SD was referring to mobile games.

This isn’t just GamePass and isn’t a complete list either but gives you an idea and while there may not be actual release dates, MS did confirm the first party games in that article as coming this year. https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2024/01/31/2024-xbox-games/amp/ First party includes: Hellblade...

All I know is there is a bunch of first party games announced as coming this year and zero announced for Sony. We’ve got a great year ahead IMO! But to each their own… As far as GamePass third party titles, I wouldn’t expect to know what’s coming. 90% of it is announced the month they are...

Sarah Bond reiterated yesterday that EVERY first party title will be coming to GamePass Day One. https://www.purexbox.com/news/2024/05/xbox-reiterates-every-first-party-title-is-coming-to-game-pass-day-one Whether a price increase happens is another story…

If ya’ll have PS Plus Extra, might want to kick Little Kitty to the curb and play Animal Well. It’s fucking fantastic. #halo

It’s amazing to me that neither one of the Final Fantasy games are even in the top 20 on PSN both in Europe and the US. Older games like The Witcher 3 are even in the top 20. Square surely has to be disappointed in how they’ve sold, particularly Rebirth.

Also seems like Stellar Blade isn’t a system seller for Sony. I honestly don’t think either side has had system sellers this gen so far. People are sticking with the ecosystem they locked into last gen for the most part. Heck, Sony doesn’t have any AAA first party games this year and the PS5 is...

PS Store Sales Charts - Europe (April 2024) Sea of Thieves Grand Theft Auto 5 Helldivers 2 Stellar Blade Pretty interesting results on the European PSN sales charts. Former Xbox exclusive beating a brand new PlayStation exclusive at release?!?!

Well, everyone can drown their sorrows today with overwhelming cuteness. Fuck COD. We’ve got Little Kitty, Big City on GamePass today!

Both of those articles have a lot of speculation and little fact. But the Bloomberg article is at least interesting to hear a little more of the reasoning behind the studio closings. Everything else isn’t surprising to hear MS “considering”.
